you think i would need a bigger dually to pull a voltage 3950? or any other 42" TH. They all seem to have a pin of 3K and total loaded of 18-19K
Yeahhh. My Heartland has an advertised pin weight somewhere in the 3k range. In reality it's a verified 4,300 lbs.
Anyone that says pin weight is 20% is full of Barbara Streisand! My Mobile Suites is well over 4,500# and about 25%.
Similar sized TH's and 5er's can have much different pin weight % ratios due to the potential garage weight in the TH. Throw 2-3k lbs in the TH's garage, which is partially behind the axles, and you can see the pin weight drop considerably.
